This book took 1 year to compile. I had to track down 60 articles Matthew wrote for Aeronautics Magazine when he was their
Technical Editor from 1908 to 1915.

I was able to get ahold of every article, but at a cost.
The scannings from the Library of Congress were of poor condition
and the Smithsonian, who has some of the originals, were in too bad of shape for them to let me even photograph at high resolution.

So for the last 6 months, I have used Photoshop, Picture It, Picasa and numerous other software programs to try and get the best resolution so these would be more readable. I even rescanned them at 1600 dpi.

I am so amazed that this was my grandfather.
Just reading his articles on different topics of aviation just amazes me.
He was a man way ahead of his time.This book is 8.5 x 11 and is spiral bound.

This is a book about my mother's watercolor paintings she did. My mother, Gail Robinson Sellers, passed away after a two year battle with stage IV colon cancer in 2004. I own 47 of the 117 paintings she did and have obtained permission from other owners for reprints of these to be available for purchase. In the book, under each picture, it will tell you whether the print is available or not available for reprinting.

All proceeds from this book will go to Colon Cancer Research minus printing costs. The Corporation I work for will match my donations 3:1, which is very generous. My mother had given me a little photo album with pictures of all of her paintings in it. I had told her one day I would publish a book on them. And now I have in her honor. Life is all about "giving" and I have been doing just that with both of my books. This book is 170 pages and is 11" x 8.5" paperback and all in color.

Larry Carroll of Olive Hill, Kentucky painted this from his house that overlooked "Blakemore"from across the field looking at the back of the house.
The house burned down in 1974one week after being named to the
